MTV's Jersey Shore vs. The Real World


Now I know you may get mad at me for mentioning Jersey Shore, but it's getting so much publicity for it's crazy antics, that I just had to mention it. And what better way to post about it then to compare it to The Real World. Now while The Real World takes 7/8 random people and puts them in a house, Jersey Shore is a show that takes 8 "Italian Americans" and puts them in a house on the jersey shore (hence the name).

Now we all know how The Real World caused a lot of controversy back in the day with it's promotion of promiscuity, but Jersey Shore, within the first episode, has come under fire for stereotyping Italians.

My question to you is this:
Is Jersey Shore a lot worse than The Real World or are people just making it a bigger deal than it actually is?
